[Holy Priest] Exit instance when you die/skip corpse run

[Pthree]

With the new automated dungeon system you get teleported to the dungeon, and you get teleported out when you either leave or are finished. But from time to time we get into these retarded groups, and you are getting closer and closer to a wipe. And then finally it comes, you wipe. You want to leave, but you cant because you are dead and have to corpse run before you can.

This is a small fix to that! Which can only be done with a Holy Priest using the talent Spirit of Redemption. For those who dont know, when you die you turn into a Spirit of Redemption for 15secs, and can continue to heal during that duration until you finally die for real.

During that 15sec period, when you are a spirit of redemption, you can leave the group and teleport out of the instance. And then magically be alive at the location which you first entered the instance (in my case, orgrimmar).

Short version trick #1:
1. Be annoyed with your group or something, and you want to leave as soon as you wipe for the first time.
2. Die/Wipe.
3. Turn into a Spirit of Redemption.
4. Leave group or teleport out of instance, before SoR runs out.
5. Voilá! You are alive and well in your home city (or where you entered), without having to corpse run to finally leave.

This requires though that you enter a dungeon using the new dungeon tool. Either for a specific dungeon, or random. Since you cant teleport to/out of the dungeon when you are not using it.

Another thing; you maybe dont want to leave and actually continue even though you wiped? No worries! When you are the Spirit of Redemption, simply Teleport out of instance, and then when you are alive and well, Teleport back to the instance and voilá! You are alive at the beginning of the instance without having to corpse run.

Short version trick #2:
1. The group wipes/you die somehow.
2. Turn into Spirit of Redemption.
3. Teleport out if instance before SoR runs out, and find yourself alive at the location you first entered the dungeon.
4. Teleport back in, and you are alive at the beginning of the instance.
5. Voilá! You just skipped a corpse run.


These tricks maybe dont have alot of uses in heroics today, since the people running it often is overgeared and a wipe wont happen. But I am currently leveling up my priest (level 55 atm), and have found both tricks very useful since I am only doing instances (no questing at all). It surely speeds things up.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I will try to answer them.

Enjoy!

At level 80, yeah most probably. Quite handy with BRD though, which has a very long corpse run (it was also there I discovered it).

When you die/turn into SoR and use the teleport button to go back to where you were before joining, will it still show you died on your statistics page or does this bypass the death altogether?

Oh sorry, totally forgot about this thread..

I do believe it doesnt work that way, unfortunately. If I remember it right, it says in chat "Player has died." when you first turn into SoR and then again when SoR runs out. You actually die two times to be exact, but the statistics aswell as your durability only shows that you have died once. So.. you "die" twice, but only one of them is "real" (if you follow what I mean).

If the "real death" by any chance would be the one when SoR runs out, I guess we've found a way to cheat death. But I havent done any testing on this and also havent paid attention when I actually used my above shown exploit.. I could do some testing later and find out!

I hope I made some sense there, I tend to write only half of what Im thinking, rendering my posts hard to understand.

Is this still working after patch 3.3.2?
